Headed to the doctor’s office in a couple of hours. Wish me luck!

I don’t know beans about Agent skills, but takes some well honed writing chops to make an MRI this funny. Especially when we all know, those suckers are scary. Glad it’s going well Erin.

MRIs are already so nerve-wracking. Can’t imagine tacking on a lengthy wait time too. Seems like you made the best of it!

OMG...you crack me up. I had a similar experience on Monday (also, not an issue)--but they gave me excellent drugs, so staring at the ceiling in one of those fetching gowns was so much easier....

Not only did I spend my psychologist career at a major cancer center and have two separate episodes of breast cancer myself, but my WIP is about a physician whose breast cancer returns, so lots of scenes about the absurdity of medical settings. I loved writing a send off of ads for breast cancer drugs. Live your best life with metastatic breast cancer!
